Description

FSS Shea Butter

FSS Shea Butter is derived from shea nuts and carefully refined to produce a smooth, white butter with little to no detectable scent. This versatile butter is solid at room temperature, with a melting point between 31-45°C, making it easy to incorporate into a wide range of formulations.

Historically used across Africa for cooking and medicinal purposes, shea butter has become a staple in the cosmetic industry due to its excellent emollient properties. Its unique composition, rich in beneficial fatty acids and non-saponifiables, helps nourish and improve skin elasticity. The refining process removes both color and odor, ensuring FSS Shea Butter blends seamlessly into your formulations without altering the fragrance or appearance of your final product.

*Note that natural butters may experience changes in texture due to melting during transit or processing. To restore a smooth consistency, gently warm, mix, and cool the butter.*

Enjoy the versatility and performance of FSS Shea Butter in your personal care creations!
